Closest I am aware of are the "Hoe money" of Mexico and Ecuador. It seems Ecuador traded copper with Mexico, and when the Mexican indians started...
I always use a different phrase. Mine is derived from Star Wars: [MEDIA] What I tell everyone is, "there is always another coin". Its true. For...
Wow, yours is spectacular sir, (of course most of yours are). Anyone who knows these issues recognizes how special your and @TIF coins really are....
One of the Seven Wonders of the world, this amazing structure was estimated over 100 meters tall. It was one of the tallest man-made structures on...
I know its an older thread, but I just won this at CNG. I bought it due to the great details on the reverse, something rarely seen. [ATTACH]...
Oh course, buying in Today's dollars at 1968 prices always seems like a good deal. However, let's see what else you could have bought: DJIA at...
Like others have said, fake. The artificial patina actually guarantees it for me without having to look at authentic copies. I have seen thousands...

Nice coin. Btw sir, your were right about me suffering through Leu, but that is simply the latest. I did manage 6 lots in Pars, but that was...
I am wondering if this sounds familiar to others: 30 days out - OMG, I am going to buy SO much. I wonder if the mailman will get a hernia...
Like I said, I would defer to more of an advanced collector of Ardashir coins. I just didn't see a match in SNS, Tom Mallon's site, Sellwood, or...
Good job. Personally I would call the coin a F and not a VF, but the pic could be deceiving.
Yeah, that Capta is on a ton of people's wish list. Nice pick up.
Top one looks like a Taxila issue, not sure if Kushan. Similar geography and timeframes as Kushan issues, so I see a lot of Taxila coins mixed in...
Hmmm, I always thought collectors at Winter Fun bought quite a bit. I usually have about 50 Mr. Franklin's with me when I go, and I almost never...
